Hi,
the package linux-sysctl-defaults got introduced in trixie and is Priority: important. Most users should install it, to avoid being surprised by behaviour changes when not having it.
An example is ping(8) not working as normal users without it, due to #1008281. 

I don't know which other things may break.
iputils-ping, procps, systemd also Recommend the package, but I imagine lots of people will be surprised anyway. 

Thanks,
Chris
